Allopar Weld Pro Pipe Cleaner C-818 – Fast Setting
Product Overview
Allopar Weld Pro Pipe Cleaner C-818 is a professional-grade, fast-acting surface preparation cleaner specifically formulated for PVC and CPVC piping systems. To guarantee a reliable, high-strength chemical weld, proper surface preparation is essential. This high-performance cleaner deeply penetrates the material surface to dissolve and completely strip away embedded dirt, manufacturing oils, grease, and other impurities from pipes and fittings prior to solvent cement application.
As displayed on the product label in Allopar-cleaner.jpg, this specialized formula is engineered to optimize joint preparation across tough industrial installations, pressure lines, and cold potable water systems.
Key Features & Benefits
Deep-Cleansing Action: Effectively breaks down and removes surface contaminants, grease, oils, and grime to ensure unhindered chemical fusion.
Rapid Evaporation: Features a fast-acting, fast-set formulation that cleans rapidly and dries within seconds, avoiding project delays or extended assembly wait times.
Universal Size Compatibility: Highly dependable for cleaning and preparing all schedules of PVC and CPVC pipe and fittings from 1/2″ up to 12″ in diameter.
Dual-System Versatility: Fully compatible with both PVC and CPVC materials, making it an excellent all-in-one preparation tool for pressure and cold potable water piping systems.
Reliable Shelf Life: Engineered with a robust, chemically stable formula that guarantees a 2-year shelf life in its original container.
Eco-Conscious Low VOC: Formulated to meet strict modern environmental and workspace constraints by minimizing harmful volatile organic emissions.
Safety & Precautions
Flammability Warning: Highly volatile and extremely flammable liquid and vapor. Keep far away from heat, sparks, open flames, hot surfaces, and electrical equipment. Strictly no smoking during use.
Ventilation Requirements: Use exclusively outdoors or in highly ventilated, open work zones to minimize the inhalation of concentrated chemical vapors.
Personal Protection: Avoid direct skin and eye contact. Always wear solvent-resistant work gloves, safety goggles, and protective outerwear before manual application.
Storage Conditions: Store securely sealed in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children.
